5.3 Carrying The MultiRAE In A Vehicle
The MultiRAE Truck Mount, used in conjunction with the front part of the Desktop Cradle, provides an
NFPA requirement-compliant way to mount and carry the MultiRAE in a vehicle.
Truck Mount Installation
The Truck Mount must be used in conjunction with the front part of the MultiRAE Desktop Cradle.
Follow the guidelines below to select the correct mounting hardware for the Truck Mount and install it in
your vehicle. Use these dimensions to pre-drill a flat surface to accept the Truck Mount. The maximum
screw diameter must not exceed 6.4mm (0.25"). Vertical clearance should be at least 26cm (10").
Letter Measurement
A 61.6 mm (2.42")

Once the Truck Mount is attached, disconnect the front part of the Desktop Cradle from its base by
pressing on the rubber release buttons on both sides of the cradle. Next, insert the plug from the power
supply into the jack on the side of the front part of the Desktop Cradle. Then slide the cradle into the
Truck Mount as shown below. The capture tabs on both sides of the Truck Mount slip into the cradle and
lock it in place. Make sure the cradle sits securely in the Truck Mount. (To separate the cradle from the
Truck Mount, press the rubber release buttons on both sides of the cradle and pull the cradle free.)
Important!
Make sure that there is sufficient
clearance around and above the
mounting plate so that the
MultiRAE can be easily placed in
the cradle and removed.
